Cookie Policy

Last updated: 12 November 2026

This cookie policy explains how Louisa Boyles, trading as Lou Boyles – The ADHD Coach for Mums (“we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website https://www.louisaboyles.com. It should be read together with our privacy notice at https://www.louisaboyles.com/privacy-policy, which explains how we handle your personal data more generally.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your computer, phone or tablet when you visit it. They help the website work properly, remember your choices and, in some cases, show the website owner how people use the site.

Some cookies are deleted when you close your browser (session cookies). Others stay on your device for a set period or until you delete them (persistent cookies).

2. How we use cookies

Our website is built on Squarespace, which sets some cookies automatically. We use cookies for two purposes:

  • Strictly necessary cookies – these are needed for the website to work and to keep it secure, for example to protect the forms on our website. The law does not require your consent for these, so they are always switched on.

  • Analytics cookies – these help us understand how visitors use our website, such as which pages are visited and how long people stay, so that we can improve it. We only set these cookies if you agree to them through the cookie banner that appears when you first visit our site.

We do not use cookies to show you advertising.

3. The cookies we use

These are the main cookies set on our website. Squarespace may update the names of its cookies from time to time; the most current list is in Squarespace’s help article “The cookies Squarespace uses”.

Strictly necessary cookies

  • crumb – protects the website and its forms against a type of security attack (cross-site request forgery). Lasts until you close your browser.

  • Squarespace cookie consent cookie – remembers whether you accepted or declined cookies on our banner, so it does not keep asking you. Lasts up to 1 year.

Analytics cookies (only with your consent)

  • ss_cvr, ss_cvt (and similar ss_ cookies) – Squarespace Analytics. These recognise returning visitors and record visits so we can see, in summary form, how our website is used. ss_cvr lasts up to 2 years; ss_cvt lasts 30 minutes.


4. Links to other websites

Our website does not include content or tools from other companies that set their own cookies. It does contain links to other websites, such as Calendly (to book a call or session), Substack and Instagram. When you click one of these links you leave our website, and that website’s own cookie and privacy policies will apply.

5. How to manage cookies

When you first visit our website, a cookie banner gives you three choices:

  • Accept all – we will use strictly necessary cookies and analytics cookies.

  • Decline all – we will only use strictly necessary cookies.

  • Manage cookies – you can choose which types of optional cookies you are happy for us to use.

If you change your mind, you can clear the cookies for our website in your browser settings. The cookie banner will then appear again on your next visit so that you can make a new choice.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers let you see which cookies are stored, delete them, and block some or all cookies. Help pages for the most common browsers are:

If you block all cookies, including strictly necessary ones, some parts of our website (such as forms) may not work properly.

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this cookie policy from time to time, for example if we start using a new tool on our website. The date at the top shows when it was last updated.

7. Contact us
